Doesn't matter what tier you play in. Answer's still the same - direct violence at the enemy. People cowering in abject terror of Minor Armor Scuffs while the enemy sets up a push with impunity has caused more preventable defeats than any amount of railgun fire ever has or ever will. This idea people have that the 'Mech is just completely unbeatable and an oppressive blanket that farms every other player on the map by sheer virtue of just existing is ridiculous. It reminds me so much of the mass pants-soiling panic people had over the Piranha, and the same sense of "if this thing even just exists on the map I may as well AFK and make a sandwich."
If you do not aggress the enemy, you cannot win. If you allow the Railshark to snipe with impunity because you've decided it's an invincible demon monster that cannot possibly lose, you cannot defeat it. The best way to deal with an 'overpowered' sniping set-up is to hurl yourself at it with all the ferocity of a chihuahua on speed shown a picture of a Maine ****. the railgun can hit one target, once, every eight seconds. If you and even just one buddy bumrush the Railshark, it does not have the pressure to push you back. if you get your team to aggressively advance into the enemy? The Railshark is cooked.
Fight like you bloody mean it, and even if the Railshark is still winning more often than it should? it'll win a whole lot less, and even when you lose you'll know you made them pay in blood for every point of match score. If you spend the first eight minutes of the match hiding behind a rock, like everybody always does, the Railshark isn't why you lost that match.
